Technical Specifications
The Thomson Dreamliner is made from ‘composite’, a selection of different materials meaning it is lighter, stronger and more aerodynamic.
Superfast – The 787 can fly upto Mach 0.85 or 640 miles per hour. Boeing’s 777 aircraft can fly at 560mph and the Airbus A380 double decker flies at 587mph.
Smooth – The Thomson Dreamliner is fitted with turbulence sensors on the rear wings meaning a smoother all round flight, even if your prone to travel sickness.
More oxygen is pumped into the cabin during your flight so you’ll leave the plane feeling fresher.
Quieter – They say the 787 is upto 60% quieter than conventional aircraft on take-off and landing, and substantially quieter at cruising altitude.
Due to brand new engines and the materials used to build the 787, it produces around 20% less carbon than other aircraft on a standard flight from London to the USA.
